Example with MenuStrip:-

Add a new Form i.e.,FormMenu to the Windows Application WABasics

Create one textbox and one MenuStrip ,one ColorDialog,one FontDialog and one SaveFileDialog,one OpenFileDialog& set the following properties to them

[menuStrip1,colorDialog1,fontDialog1,fontDIalog1,saveFileDialog1,openFileDialog1 will only appear in Component tray]

textBox1:

     Name     :         txtSample

menuStrip1:-

Name          :         menuStrip1

         

ToolStripMenuItem s Name s

1.File          :         mnuFile

          1)Open       :         smnuopen

          2)Save        :         smnuSave

          3)Exit         :         smnuExit

2.Format     :         mnuFormat

          1)Font         :         smnuFont

          2)Color       :         smnuColor

                   1]ForeColor          :         smnuForeColor

                   2]BackColor         :         smnuBackColor  

Design :-

Generate the Event Handlers for smnuOpen,smnuSave,smnuExit,smnuFont ,smnuForeColor,smnuBackColor Click Events

& write the following code in Source[FormMenu.cs] 

using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.IO; namespace WABasics {     public partial class FormMenu : Form     {         public FormMenu()         {             InitializeComponent();         }         private void smnuOpen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {           openFileDialog1.Filter="Text Files|*.txt|Word Files|*.doc|Excel Files|*.xls|All Files|*.*";           openFileDialog1.ShowDialog();           //txtSample.Text = openFileDialog1.FileName;           string s = openFileDialog1.FileName;           StreamReader obj1 = new StreamReader(s);           txtSample.Text = obj1.ReadToEnd();         }         private void smnuSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             saveFileDialog1.ShowDialog();            // txtSample.Text = saveFileDialog1.FileName;             string s = saveFileDialog1.FileName;             StreamWriter obj1 = new StreamWriter(s);             obj1.WriteLine(txtSample.Text);             obj1.Flush();         }         private void smnuExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             Application.Exit();         }         private void smnuFont_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             fontDialog1.ShowDialog();             txtSample.Font = fontDialog1.Font;         }         private void smnuForeColor_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             colorDialog1.ShowDialog();             txtSample.ForeColor = colorDialog1.Color;         }         private void smnuBackColor_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             colorDialog1.ShowDialog();             txtSample.BackColor = colorDialog1.Color;         }         private void mnuFile_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {         }             } }

Result :-

Run the application & Enter any data in textbox

Use Open,Save Exit,Font,ForeColor,BackColor options & Check
